Nature

*10 minutes ago. In the kitchen*

"Felix, we really need to get her to a therapist. I'm for real this time, jokes apart. She acts like a savage. Her boyish character is not so bad. Infact I don't have a problem with it. She's rebellious and cares very little about any and everything. I'm starting to feel like this is mental, Felix. This is not how things are meant to be. She said getting bread in and out of the old toaster.

Most of the things that weren't to be left in the house (people were going to buy the house at anytime) nor to be taken with them were given out. The old toaster was that one thing Annah didn't know what to do with it. The bread she had bought earlier was to be eaten as sandwich but the kids already ate it like that. She had to get a new loaf to serve the family for dinner. She had initially decided to leave them hungry as a punishment but she changed her mind immediately after. Annah was a very woman but one thing she always had on her mind was her daughter's character. Unlike other rebellious kids she knows or hears of, Evie didn't go around causing trouble, which was just a little bonus that still held her hope.

If not disturbed or bothered, she was like a good pet who just sat at the corner of the house doing it's thing. However, saying or doing something to her that is displeasing could cost the person his or her wellbeing. She's engaged in endless fights. Heavens know how she rarely got suspended. About 5 years in the school with up to eighty two fights and only two suspension cases. And she was pretty good academically which was not too surprising (focusing in class with everyone of the teacher's words on her head and not having to read). Suspension cases were rare because she always turned out right calling it ' self defense'. Everyone knows she doesn't make trouble and whosoever got beaten got a good amount of his own trouble. However, those two cases were as crazy as beaten a classmate unconscious with blood from his mouth. Rumor (or gist) had it that she only hit girls with a few punches but boys got the main beating.

All these information didn't just pass by. Annah took note of them and tried as much as she could to tame the girl but there was just no suitable leash. Her association with people was like that of a serial killer with bloodlust and didn't want people around and trying to shoo or get rid of them with words. Those adjectives- rude, rebellious, cold, boyish, stubborn, carefree, easily irritated, savage and many more....

It got to a point, Annah started terming it as a mental and emotional state that needed to be attended to before getting worse till it gets to it's peak.

She spoke to her husband about it multiple times, raising more or different points everytime.

However, Felix had his reasons for not terming it as mental or emotional problem. He called it "nature."

"Nature, you say? Did you see how she reacted this afternoon after asking her about the bread? You keep mentioning nature all the time but this nature is already getting not natural. I've made my point now so I'm going to go call the kids down for dinner. I expect you to say something to her about it. Okay?" She said placing the wraps of sandwich on the dinning table.

Realizing Evie was no longer in her room, but Dave's, she knocked on the door and called them down for dinner.
